[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have truly fallen through the rabbit hole where Brent parents state "we need to lose some of that diversity" with respect to OOB and lower SES...YEs, Brent needs to serve its neighborhood, but [b]as long as there is room[/b], we should welcome and treasure the gifts of those that come to Brent OOB.[/quote] You're not saying anything anyone else isn't.[/quote] Actually the person who started this portion of the discussion said she was glad to see diveresity go.[/quote] Yes, in the sense that "diversity" means 99% OOB kids from low SES.[/quote] Glad to see our co-PTA president who has been a tireless volunteer at Brent for years, glad to see the former Olympian who has been a strong parent volunteer over the years and glad to see the dad who volunteered to DJ at many aftercare events over the past couple of years go. Yes good thing these OOB lower SES families are gone. They did nothing for the school but bring down the high SES kids. The thing that gets me is that the way some of the posters are talking you would think that these OOB low SES families did nothing or cared nothing for Brent. These families put a lot into Brent and to be told that it is good to see them go is really fucking harsh. [/quote]
